Lucis knees shake under him and he growls.

"I still have five minutes, fratello." I begin to sweat as he pulls his knives closer and I notice Kiku is now Kuro, and potato bastard is now Lutz. I thought Feli was the only one who could do that!

"Fratello, how can I do anything to your beloved ragazza if she's run off?" I hiss at him trying to move as little as possible, feeling the sharp knife almost penetrate my skin. Suddenly, the knives start... melting?! Feli falls backwards and just lays there, back to normal. Ludwig and Kuro also change back, having better experience with their alter egos, which is a bit scary. Who knows who've they killed?

YOUR POV

I run, and run, and run until I get to school. I finally get to my first period class and slump down in my seat before noticing Alfred walk in. He's in this class? Ah, whatever. No difference really. I jump at a tap on my shoulder and leap to face the person.

"Hallo, Frau. It seems jou got avay, hmm?" he grabs my ear and Alfred notices. He whispers something into His brother, Canada's ear. Canada nods and turns away just as Alfred punches him in the face. Hard.

"YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO SAY THAT! JUST SHUT UP AND GO EAT SOME PANCAKES!" I gasp at Alfred's sudden outburst as the teacher turns around. Canada seems totally calm, and Alfred winks at me.

"I will not be having of of zhat in my class. Jou can sit next to (name)." Oh, I get it. He was trying to get moved, and that's why he was whispering to Canada.

"Also, jou vill have detention." He slumps a bit, but regains his posture and grins.

THIRD POV

"CAN I USE THE RESTROOM?" You shout, raising your hand. You're excused, but you bring your pen in hopes nobody notices, which they don't. You reach the bathroom and try to think of something to write, something bad. Something detention worthy, but you feel bad and put your pen away. Soon, it's the end of the day. The allies and axis have congregated at the lobby, arguing over who walked you home.

You slip away without them noticing, but you hear a faint "Bella!" as you flee. The voice fails to follow you, which you found a little strange, but whatever. You pull out your phone and log into tumblr to see what's going on and gasp.

"RIP Mr. Williams."

"We loved Robin Williams."

"You're free now."

The list goes on and on and you just stop looking. He's... Dead. Gone. The most joyful man you had ever heard of, the most talented man you had ever heard of. Dead. You log back on and scroll a bit more.

"Reports claim he died of self inflicted asphyxiation."

"Suicide"

"Depression." What? How? If you could control yourself, then why couldn't he? You had to feel pretty low to kill yourself, and he... why? You ran to the Y and slumped on the ledge.

You were tired. You were sad. Angry. Hurt. Everything but happy, and wanting for nothing more than to be alone.

"Name? Are you okay? I saw you run up there. It's me, Lukas."

"I'm doing great! Hiw are you, Nor?"

"Wonderful. May I join you?" You peer over the edge to meet the empty eyes of the Nordic and nod slowly, a blush creeping to your cheeks.
"Perhaps you could explain how I get up?"
"Oh, uh, here." You direct him and after many foot slippings and altogether falling a few times, he joins you.
You scoot away from him so he can have more space, but he does the same.
"You aren't okay."
"W-why do you keep saying that! I'm doing great!" He grabs your shoulder with his right hand and your face with his left, being careful not to be rough.
"You're not, though. You're sad. You won't admit it because you don't think you're worth worrying about. You so badly want to tell me everything, but you feel too insignificant. You want someone to listen. You want to cry. You want someone to look, really look, and see past your face, break the mask you wear. That's exactly what I have done, and you need to tell me what's wrong."
He grips your shoulder and pulls you to him, kissing you. Your eyes widen and a tear escapes, then another, and another. It ends just as quickly as it started and you break down.
"I'm not okay! I'm sad, I'm alone, nobody even cares! The damn allies aren't helping at all, they just want their reputation, they're exhausting me, and they're just making the BTT more angry so they hurt me more! I just want someone to listen to me. You're right. Everything you said. You're right." You hug him closely and bury your face in his chest, choking on your tears.
Lukas looks at you, so vulnerable, so... broken.
"I'll walk to school with you tomorrow. I promise that I will be with you any time it's possible, and maybe even when it's impossible. I just want you to be okay."
